The Legend to a Legendary Poster!

Run out and get yourself a copy of Inside Mad so you can fold out Sergio Aragonés' amazing poster showing six decades of Madness in the Mad offices. To help you identify every person and thing he's drawn, I put together an interactive viewer with labels!

Hey, Doug!
Thanks again for remaining such a staunch fan of the magazine. I can't tell you how much we here at the magazine rely on your site. By the way, extra kudos to you for updating your site with more extensive contents and back cover scans. I sometimes wonder when you find the time!
Your buddy, Sam

Scott Gosar has been selling Mad Magazines and lots of other humor publications for many years. He's definitely worth checking out if you're struggling in your search. He's also a wealth of information if a certain thing you thought you saw 20 years ago is keeping you up nights. Visit his site and tell him Doug sent you!

Have you seen Mad artist Tom Richmond's fantastic book?It's called The Mad Art of Caricature! What a great resource for budding caricaturists. It's also great for fans of the form, like me, who shake our heads in wonder about how it's done. Lots of great Mad stuff inside, too!Get it for yourself or the artist in your family.

If you happened upon my site and you actually made it this far down the page, I've got news for you: You have more than a passing interest in Mad Magazine. And if you haven't had the pleasure of reading Frank Jacobs' masterpiece The Mad World of William M. Gaines, then I'm not sure what to say.

What's with all the Amazon links? For years I've been directing visitors to Amazon pages. For every dollar you spend on anything at Amazon after clicking through from a link on my site, I see about a nickel in the form of a gift certificate, which I use to buy Mad-related merchandise, computer books, ecch! So consider coming here first the next time you want to go to Amazon. Thanks!
